The 7mm PRC hasn’t yet taken the world by storm, but that’s okay. So long as Hornady is making the cartridge of their own design, you’ll have an easy time picking the best 7mm PRC hunting ammo. That’s Hornady Precision Hunter.
This round is bejeweled with the 175 grain Extremely Low Drag - eXpanding projectile. The ELD-X’s signature feature is its Heat Shield tip. It’s made of polymer that’s specially formulated to withstand aerodynamic heating without deforming, which ensures an always-perfect meplat. The ELD-X’s AMP jacket, secant ogive silhouette, and boat tail also do their jobs to flatten trajectory and sharpen accuracy. At 0.347, its G7 ballistic coefficient gives the ELD-X a trajectory that rises a mere 4.3” en route to a 300-yard zero.
The ELD-X lacks a bonded jacket, although the InterLock ring which attaches its jacket to its core does ensure no more than 50% weight loss at ranges within 400 yards. The ELD-X’s weight retention increases to at least 85% beyond that range. At low-velocity impact the ELD-X’s polymer tip and nose cavity produce the wide terminal expansion which can end any American hunt in an instant.
The deep-penetrating and death-dealing ELD-X is seated in Hornady’s highest-quality brass case, with a primer/powder combo that delivers a steady 3,000 fps muzzle velocity out of a 24” barrel.
